we’ve approached our curriculum in a way no one ever has
résumé centric
we’ve started from the end and then worked backwards
we determined what skills, competencies, and experiences the ideal second-year product manager and software developer have and then designed the 12-month regiment of software builds that would produce that employee
(click on either résumé above to see the skills and experiences that every pega6 graduate will possess)
product focused
students spend 2,000+ hours building commercial-grade products
through repetition, students achieve entry-level mastery, and through exposure to a variety of practices, frameworks, tools, and methodologies, they gain a fundamental understanding of the hows, whys, and whats of the job
product builds increase in sophistication & duration and span different product types
problem solving
we employ a “continuous failure” pedagogy where students are given minimal instruction and must navigate challenges independently until they’re unable to move forward
only then does a pega6 manager intervene to provide enough guidance and support to get them “unstuck”; this methodology ensures that our graduates are highly adept at autonomous problem solving
